Generalised Anxiety Disorder
Clinical Depression
ADD................................
Not a list of things you would be keen on your trusted doctor to have but yes............I am a medical student. I am "struggling" with some issues that I really wish I didn't have. BUT I know I may have all this crap going on but I know that when it comes to the actuality of life and the fear that people have when that go the doctor, they want someone they can talk to on a level. Just because I'm personable and "working class" doesn't mean I'm not super intelligent.......Which I have learned to embrace, I like to know things.....hence the "curious..." tattoo on my foot! I like to talk to people. Maybe its because that people I'm around don't wanna talk to me. I'm different. I don't believe that studying medicine is a ticket to be an ass hole!!! Its a humanities based in science.....and ALOT of people forget that fact. I have no idea how to talk to people here. I feel like noone cares about what I have to say in the slightest........I am "socially awkward" but noone believes me.....I get all sweaty and I tend to make inappropriate jokes and ALWAYS drink too much.........I have problems, but who the hell doesn't. I get the feeling alto of people think I shouldn't be here, I am out of place and will not be a professional in the future.....I have a life goal. I am going to save the world....well try to. There is so many people that need help in the WORLD..... I know that there is a HUGE part of me that wants to just qualify, and fly off to Africa/Asia/South America and save the world. No matter what people say, there is an enormous amount of selfishness in medicine. Stay in a country that charges €50/consultation and €100/emergency room visit............................Nah, I will qualify and use my skills to help those who cannot afford this crap. I am not in medicine to make millions. I have said it 100 times I WANT TO SAVE THE WORLD........I was given a brain that is emotional yet intelligent and that needs to be nutured, not suppressed.....
